Flow charts

What is a flowchart

A flowchart is a graphical description of a process or algorithm using various symbols of different forms to represent operations, data, threads, etc. relations between which
are shown by the arrows. Flowcharts are used to explain sophisticated ideas in simplified manner so that even inexperienced audience could easily get the idea. Flowcharts are
also helpful to their creators — when developing a flowchart you visually break a process to steps and begin to clearly understand the step's place as a part of the process as
a whole.

Why use flowcharts

Flowcharts will help you understand how logical the process is, discover problem areas and relations breaks, define the complexity of a process, and create a common knowledge
base for a process.

Flowcharts are commonly used to:

document and describe the existing process;

develop modification to the existing process or research where the problems may arise;

develop an absolutely new process;

define how, where and when to measure the existing process in order to make sure it corresponds to the requirements.
